Feasibility of Using Continuous Glucose Monitoring to Detect Glycemic Abnormalities in Children with Cystic Fibrosis
Authors' conclusion
CGM placement is feasible in a busy CF clinic to detect glucose abnormalities in children.
Study context
- Population
- Children seen in a pediatric cystic fibrosis (CF) clinic who could not do an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) (emesis with OGTT or fear of needles) or had an abnormal OGTT36 sensors placed
- Outcome
- Feasibility of 10-day CGM (Dexcom G6Pro)
